In this post we are going to learn how we can host a website in Azure. Azure provides a way to host websites as easy as possible. It will just take few minutes to host your websites in Azure. The only perquisites are, you must have a registered domain name and MSDN subscription. Here I will show you how you can do this. I hope you will like it.

What is Azure?

Azure contains managed services, pre built templates, integrated tools which makes easier to build mobile,enterprise, IOT applications. It is pretty much faster and it provides much spaces on the cloud for us. The simplicity of Azure makes any user to be more productive.

Conclusion

Did I miss anything that you may think which is needed? Could you find this post as useful? I hope you liked this article. Please share me your valuable suggestions and feedback.

Your turn. What do you think?

A blog isn’t a blog without comments, but do try to stay on topic. If you have a question unrelated to this post, you’re better off posting it on C# Corner, Code Project, Stack Overflow, Asp.Net Forum instead of commenting here. Tweet or email me a link to your question there and I’ll definitely try to help if I can.
